My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a really enjoyable short romance read. It was a fast paced story that keeps you turning the pages. The characters were both very likeable and worked well together.

Frank was a cosmetic surgeon, he had a well paid job but he wasn’t happy so he leaves to take a job as a surgeon for a burns unit which is very dear to his heart.
When he starts work he meets a barmaid called Barbara who asks for help. She struggles with a bad back due to her big chest so she was looking for a breast reduction.
Unable to help her Frank gives her the details of his friend who could perform the surgery. What Frank doesn’t expect is to fall in love with Barbara.
This is a story about a one night stand that turns into more. As the story progresses we learn all about Frank’s past and why he is driven into the work he does. He has had a hard life and closed himself off to everyone until he meets Barbara.

Right in Front of You: Volume One Brinley and AdrianRight in Front of You: Volume One Brinley and Adrian by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Brindley has known her path in life from the beginning, from the army to the Olympics and a gold medal winner but now she feels like she is drifting not really knowing what she wants to do or were to live, but when she receives another message from her stalker, she is drawn straight back to where is comfortable with friends, Morris Valley.

Adrian has responsibilities ever since he chooses to live with his dad on the ranch at 14, he has been drawn to this little town, but over the years it has been changing and he feels like he is becoming a grumpy old rancher with not many prospects, until his friends decide he needs a girlfriend and what harm can that be?
As his friends start setting him up with girls, he starts to think this is an endless task until one night in walks Brindley and changes his mind forever.

This is not the first book I have read by this author, and this will not be the last. I love the way the author has the ability to create characters are relatable to and that you feel you are their best friends, and you are involved within the story. Brindley’s character is so relatable and the interaction between her friends is just great to read. Adrian’s character as the brooding rancher was a great opposite to Brindley’s character and the chemistry was off the page.

I thought the story was well written and the twists and turns in the story added to the romance and building up of the relationship between the two of them. I can’t wait to read more in this series and get to see things develop for all the characters in this book, especially Clover I hope she gets a happy ever after.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

enjoyed Noah’s Not Super Summer immensely. The author writes in a way that you get sucked in immediately. I started the book a few hours ago and kept telling myself just one more chapter. Next thing I knew I was finished.

Noah is a 12 year old kid whose life is anything but super. He gets bullied by the jocks. His dad has a low paying job and they live pretty poor. Plus a pandemic caused people and animals to develop super powers. His dads job is to help collect evidence from the scenes and being them back to the research lab. After being present for an attack by a mutant, Noah’s life turns around. As he searches for the truth to it all he makes new friends and discoveries that lands him on the radar of some bad people.

This book is great for tweens, teens, young adults and anyone looking for an adventure. Please give it a try and check out Brittany’s other novel. It’s really good.

All The World’s A Stage, As They Say

In 1876 Philadelphia, Benjamin Grimm knows real life is much like the theater—people play their parts, hiding behind the illusion of their lives and never revealing their secrets. When he reunites with his childhood friend Eleanor Banneker, his delight turns to dismay. On learning she has been under a spell for the past seven years, forced to live as a servant in her own home, he realizes how sinister some secrets can be.

Ellie has spent the long years since her mother’s death under her stepmother’s watchful and unforgiving eye. Bewitched and hidden in plain sight, it seemed no one could help Ellie escape. Not even her own father, likewise bespelled. When she encounters Ben one evening, he seems immune to the magic that binds her. Her hope rekindles along with their friendship.

But time is running short. If they do not find a way to break the curse before midnight on New Year’s Eve, both Ellie and her father will be bound forever.

Noah Reagan has always dreamed of making it big—for science. A place in The Summer with Supers Youth Program would provide him with just that. Popularity, respect, and maybe even a bully-free semester.

But when Lincoln City’s mutant infestation leaves Noah’s dreams crushed beneath a pile of rubble, he’s forced to spend the summer working for his dad’s failing Mega-Maintenance company, cleaning up after the very creatures that have stolen his freedom.

With the real heroes battling back the incoming hordes, Noah begins his investigation into the madness fueling the monsters, hoping to end the mega-meltdowns before his last chances of a super summer are swept into the dustbin.

Though, with the mastermind holding the keys to Noah’s dreams, interfering may doom him to an off-brand existence, and a future of atomic wedgies, forever.

Right in Front of You: Volume One Brinley and AdrianRight in Front of You: Volume One Brinley and Adrian by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Absolutely loved this book, and cannot wait to read more in this series! Shooting was always mine and my dad’s thing, it was a passion we shared. When I opened this book and realized what Brinley’s career was I instantly thought of my dad.
When Brinley and her family move at the age of 10, she and her friends make a blood pact to remain best friends forever. Time and distance does nothing to change the bond they all share. She has major success in her life and becomes a world renowned marksman and olympian. A crazy stalker threatens her happy life. She returns home to Morris Valley to take time for herself and reconnect with her lifelong friends, but it doesn’t come without a lot of excitement. Brinley meets the private and somewhat reclusive Adrian and it’s instant attraction between the two. He will go to any lengths to protect Brinley and keep her safe.
The twist this book takes was totally unexpected. I figured her stalker would be someone she knew, but it was not at all who I would have guessed!

The Sweet Temptations Trilogy (Sinful Delights)The Sweet Temptations Trilogy by L.M. Mountford
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Sweet Temptations Trilogy was alright. A steamy forbidden fruit romance collection. When I first decided to read it, I didn’t read the synopsis. I thought it was a collection of 3 individual short temptations stories, not 3 connected stories. The author connected each one nicely.
Richard has a beautiful wife but his good looks have put him on the radar of other women. Is he tempted, absolutely! Does he respond, resoundedly! Is it right, depends on who you ask. When catches the eye of his boss and his babysitter he knows despite what his body wants he can’t give in to the desire. But what happens when he does? These books navigate those encounters and how they are handled in steamy detailed way that will have the reader wanting more.
As a whole I said alright. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the first story but the other two put me back on board. The first story felt a little slow and all over the place till it was coming to an end. The second and third stories redeemed the collection. I’ve read this author in the past and it is one I will keep on my list of go-tos.
If you want hot, steamy, age-gap, and forbidden. Trust me take a leap it’s all that and more.

Insomnia: (A Short Stories Collection) by Kelly Covic – Review by Mandy Ott

Insomnia (A Short Stories Collection)Insomnia by Kelly Covic
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely devoured Kelly Covic’s Insomnia. This collection of 9 short stories is full of scary twists and things that go bump in the night. These stories made my already active imagination run wild! At the end of each story, I felt like I was questioning, “what happened?” “what was making that noise?” and “did I really just read that?” Although the stories were short, Kelly Covic managed to pack them with great world building and a wonderful array of characters. I felt every pounding heart, eyes darting, shallow breath moment in each of the stories. This was my first time reading anything by Kelly Covic, but I am looking forward to reading more!

This is the first read in the emerging series and it was okay. I feel like the execution could’ve been better but it was still good. The storyline was solid but I do feel it was rushed. I would’ve liked to see the stalker portion played out a little more with a little more mystery.

Under My Care (Chase Care Book 3)

This is the second book in thus series I have read and as with the first I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was going to happen between the Chase guys and the evil they are up against.

Definitely be prepared to deal with a tough part of the story, it shook me up a bit while reading. I wasn’t expecting it at all.

Peter and Rowena hadn’t seen one another in seventeen years since they were active duty in Afghanistan. They have a lot to catch up on on top of saving lives and fighting a group of evil and greedy locals.

Definitely worth the time to read but brace yourself.

Other People's Money (The Madeline Dawkins Series Book 7)Other People’s Money by Cynthia Hamilton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I read several of The Madeline Dawkins Series a couple of years ago. Through the books, Madeline’s character grew from a trophy wife to a private investigator. This all came about due to Madeline’s ex-husband embezzling money through a Ponzi scheme.

Since starting the private investigation business with her friend and now husband Mike, they have proved themselves to be good investigators that complete jobs and also assists the police. In this book, Madeline and Mike are working on solving three different cases that bring them work but stress too.

I really missed reading the series. I love Madeline and Mike’s personalities and how they work together. The author does a wonderful job of creating the atmosphere and locations the PI business takes them to. I look forward to catching up on reading the books in this series that I missed.

As always this author did not disappoint! Another sweet romance read. This one is about a cosmetic surgeon who has been working towards one goal. When he finally gets to his goal something unexpected comes along, well someone unexpected. She is not what he expected but in the most amazing way. Barbara was not looking for anything but advice and she found so much more. I really like getting to know about Frank’s past and what drove him to work so hard for his end goal. I am always a fan of this author’s writing style and cannot wait to read more from her!

This is an all around amazing fantasy romance book that kept it interesting. Living two totally different lives, Niamh and Connor, have just this electrifying energy about them, that pulls them together. They may live different lives, but there truly is no stopping this love they hold, even if it comes with a cost. Action packed with such good details to really make it come to life.

The Challenger: A Sports Romance Saga (The Hustlers Trilogy Book 2)The Challenger: A Sports Romance Saga by Rowan Rossler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This started out great! Pulled me in to the story and the characters. As the book went along I was struggling to stay involved and focused. It picks back up near the end and finishes strong. It is a reverse age gap(which is only about 8yrs) and its also touted as a interracial couple. It is but not really and honestly it is very subtle as I am more Interested in each character individually more than what race they are. More importantly this also is full of secrets, lies and sensual tension. I liked that the character is in a sport we do not read about much in romance novels.

The characters are well done. I felt the emotions along with each main personality. Chavez frustrated me at times but I think that is the emotions of a professional player always in the “on” position.

There is a lot I liked about this one. His family, his job, her job and their connection are all interesting to me. The suspense and drama are also good. I also had that Awww factor going a couple times. I just struggled but it could have been my life right now. I would read another story by this author as I feel they stray away from the normal and give something a little different.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this friends to lovers romance story. It was really fast paced which made it an easy read. The characters were so engaging that you felt completely invested in them from the beginning. I read this book in one sitting as I couldn’t put it down.

Nate and Abby had been friends for years. They share a special relationship and bond that neither has with anyone else.
When Abby reaches 40 she starts to question her life. She has always wanted a baby and someone to love but it hasn’t happened and she feels time is ticking away.
One chat with Nate and together they come to a decision. They are best friends, they love and trust each other. So Nate offers Abby a one time thing. He will get her pregnant and she can have his baby. What could possible go wrong?

What follows is a story of discover as a one time things turns into something neither of them saw coming but both of them were scared to admit. Things aren’t all plain sailing away and there are challenges that they need to work through.
There are times when as a reader you feel like banging their heads together to make them see sense and realise what they have.
It is an emotional romance and I really enjoyed their journey from friends to lovers.

Doctor Frank Enstein by C.A. King is part of the Doctors of Eastport General collaboration series. I found this to be a really fun short read. When Frank decides to change his career path from cosmetic surgery to leading the burn clinic at Eastport General, he makes the decision to be dedicated to his path with no distractions. When he is accidentally rude to barmaid Barbara, he begins to rethink his choices. This was a very enjoyable book, I wish it was longer as there are so many other interesting characters and relationships within the hospital staff, this has definitely encouraged me to read some of the other titles in the series.

So, I am in shock. Never thought that traveling can be an eye-opener to the truth. Well for Dan, losing life and family he never thought there was truth in the road than at his own home. I was feeling weird at first about the book (in a good way, don’t get me wrong) then when I found out that Dan was missing something in life that made him think about his relationship with his wife that changed the ball game for me because after a while reading into the long drive in the road with Jake that clicked. It is funny that sometimes to know the truth you have to take a ride and see where that leads you. 5 stars for the Author because life is all about taking chances and taking a long drive to clear your mind and that is what Dan did.

The heroine takes my breath away with her grit and determination to do all that she can for her siblings, as well as her family’s reputation. She comes to consider how the actions of her family may have looked to outsiders. As an added bonus, there will be more books to follow in this series.

This trilogy had a lot of spice to it.
In the first book, Richard and Alice go out and leave their son with the babysitter Rebecca they always use who lives in the same apartment building. When they get home, Rebecca asks Richard to
come up to her apartment to try to
Fix something on her computer. She answers the door in a tiny black robe and as much as he tried to fight the attraction, it was nearly impossible when Rebecca is practically throwing herself at him.

The second book takes place at Richards job. Scarlet ( his bosses daughter ) has a mouth on her and she loves to harass Richard. One day Richard has enough of her and her belittling him. Scarlet is used to dominating everyone and but the tables have been turned for once.

Book 3 was just so so crazy. Somehow Alice ends up helping Rebecca out of a bad situation. Takes her Downstairs to her apartment and Alice lets Rebecca in on a little secret which then Rebecca lets Alice in on a little secret. When Richard gets home he is so confused about what is going on but loves every moment of what is happening.

Right in front of you
By: Brooke May

This is such a fun romantic story. Brinley left Morris Valley years ago when her family moved. Her friends and her made a pact that they would stay friends forever. They all did their best to stay friends, but miles and miles separated them. Brinley served in the military and now is traveling as a rep for a gun company. She is currently working as an expert on a documentary set showing how guns work. What she doesn’t expect is that a stalker she thought was gone would reappear. The authorities have been working to solve who this stalker is and ensure her safety. But somehow this stalker has managed to get onto a closed set, into her trailer and leave her a note. She doesn’t want to admit how scared she is. So she is going the only place that has ever felt home – Morris Valley – to the friends that have never forgotten her.
Adrian is a rancher through and through. Ranching takes every minute of his time and all of his energy. He would love to find a woman that he can come home to at the end of the day. But he has literally never found a woman who can share her heart with ranching. The one woman he thought would be able to, he discovered was cheating on him. So he has been incredibly jaded and is happy to be with his cattle and his sheep.
Their paths cross and sparks fly. They both need each other in so many different ways. I truly loved their connection. I love all the characters in Morris Valley and I cannot wait to see what comes next in the series. I can already tell this is going to be one of my favorites.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a great 5 star read. Once I started I didn’t want to put it down. Abby is getting older and she really wants to be a mom. She is also a successful business woman. It doesn’t help that her mom keeps giving her a hard time as well. When her best friend Nate offers to help things start to look up. She has cared for him for years, will things change for them? Will Nate finally admit his feelings to Abby? Overall I really enjoyed this read. All of the characters were great. And I also want to add that Nate is a firefighter, yum. The author does a great job with this story and I look forward to reading more from this series. I was really happy with how Abby and Nates story ended. 1-click and get started today.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book! Best friend romances are sweet and this one was no different. The author’s take in Just One Time was just different enough that it’s something I will remember. It stands out from other books in the genre. The way these characters were written was slightly frustrating at times but you still were rooting for them.
Nate and Abby have been best friends for over 30 years. That’s how they ever saw each other. Unfortunately Abby wants the family and baby she always wanted and turning 40 has brought that need to the forefront. That’s where Nate comes in, they decide to try “Just One Time” to see if he could help her have a baby. What neither of them realized before that though was how much they truly cared for one another. How they actually loved the other more than a friend, but how does one navigate that? Especially when they agreed it would be just one time. So instead they are jealous and stubborn about each other. Keeping their true feelings in because they feel that’s what the other wants. All they want is for the other to be happy.
Now the questions become:
Was it really “Just One Time?”
Did Nate help give Abby what she wants?
Do they ever admit how they truly feel?
I invite you to jump on the rollercoaster ride of emotions these two navigate on this adventure of life. You will be happy, sad, and even mad at them, but feeling those emotions makes for a great story. The author beautifully wrote a standalone best friends romance that didn’t disappoint.

Savage Lies: A High School Bully Romance (Hidden Valley Elite Book 1)Savage Lies: A High School Bully Romance by Isla Vaughn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Savage Lies follows the prequel Savage Start.
Enemies-to-lovers and high school bully are understated. This is dark and full of scandal, so much scandal. It’s also full of angst, lies, drama, and even more secrets, jealousy, and bullying.

Riley thought a new place would make a great place to hide, as she always does. Her life is still full of secrets, but this time her mom is changing the rules of the game. Unfortunately for Riley she can’t escape the one causing her so much trouble because of her mom’s relationship with Cole’s dad. She has to stay out of his way or find a way to win.
Cole is one of the Elite, the leader is reality. The Elite are privileged boys who rule their private school. He hates his dad and his mom is dead. Cole’s agenda is to make his dad miserable, no matter the cost.

The characters are so easy to love, Riley, or hate, Cole. The pages fly by once you start. Savage Lies ends with a major cliffhanger. I need the next book now!

Return to Hoodoo: A Paranormal Women's Fiction Novel (Boudin, Barbecue, and Hoodoo Book 1)Return to Hoodoo: A Paranormal Women’s Fiction Novel by Reggi Dupree
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved how the author jumped us right into the story and then sprinkled the backstory in and she wove an amazing paranormal story. The writing style keeps you on the edge of your seat from the get go, wanting to learn more about what happened and what will happen. Gwen is a fabulous heroine, strong, fierce and sassy. She is the type of character that you would want to go get a drink with and see what happens. The author has created a wonderful world full of paranormal creatures mixed in with regular humans. I absolutely can’t wait to read the prequel book and what comes next from the author!

Right in Front of You: Volume One Brinley and AdrianRight in Front of You: Volume One Brinley and Adrian by Brooke May
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Brinley and her friends make a blood promise pact as kids that they would always keep in touch and always be friends. Brinley’s parents move her to Texas for her mom’s work and this pact was made minutes before she left the only home she ever knew.

Fast forward a few years and Brinley has completed her military service and is an Olympic athlete. She’s just coming off tour when she has a stalker that just won’t leave her alone. Brinley decides to go back to her hometown and catch up with her friends. Not much had changed in her hometown except the addition of Adrian.

Adrian is a tall drink of water and is also super quiet and reserved. He’s a rancher who prefers to stay to himself but when he sees Brinley and she’s hanging out with his friends, he has to get to know her. He never predicts just how much they need each other, but especially Brinley when her stalker hunts her down.

I loved the mystery of this book! It made for a pleasant story with a good plot line. This is the first book in a new series by this author. I look forward to seeing where this series goes!
